Chapter 606: Tian Ji Horse Racing

After agreeing with Qin Aoxue that he would definitely watch her competition, Ye Chen took her back to the banquet scene.

At this time, some guests had arrived at the banquet scene, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Old Master Song heard that Ye Chen had arrived and hurriedly came out to greet him, but by the time he came out, Ye Chen had already gone out with Qin Aoxue.

When Ye Chen returned, Old Master Song greeted him happily, "Oh, Master Ye, haven't seen you for days!"

Ye Chen looked at Old Master Song and smiled slightly, "Old Master Song, your spirit looks still very strong. Is your health okay recently?"

Old Master Song said with a face full of gratitude, "Master Ye, thanks to you, this old man who was about to die could regain his second spring."

As he spoke, he asked Ye Chen again, "Master Ye, how have you been recently?"

Ye Chen nodded and smiled, "I'm not bad, everything is the same as before."

Old Master Song said implicitly, "Master Ye, you seemed to have some unhappiness with the Wu family before. Since that birthday banquet, has the Wu family made things difficult for you?"

Ye Chen smiled, "Even if they make things difficult, what can they do? It's nothing more than a bunch of clowns."

Old Master Song's expression was full of admiration.

He knew that Ye Chen had great ability, but the Wu family, although honored as the number one family in Jiangnan, still couldn't do anything to Master Ye.

Just then, Song Rongyu walked over and whispered in the old master's ear, "Grandpa, Young Master Kong from the Yan Jing Kong family is here."

Old Master Song said with a surprised expression, "Young Master Kong really came?"

"Yes." Song Rongyu said, "Young Master Kong's car just entered the villa area, and he should be here soon."

Old Master Song nodded and said, "Call Wanting, let's go out to greet him together."

After speaking, he turned around and said to Ye Chen with an apologetic face, "Master Ye, please forgive the old man for not greeting you well. There is another distinguished guest coming from afar from Yan Jing, I'll go out to greet him."

Ye Chen didn't take it seriously and nodded lightly.

Chen Zekai on the side was a bit surprised. He whispered to Ye Chen, "Young Master, the Kong family in Yan Jing is a second-tier family. Their overall strength ranks sixth or seventh in Yan Jing. Although they are far behind the Ye family, their family assets add up to five or six hundred billion. The Song family is just over a hundred billion. Logically speaking, the Kong family should look down on the Song family. I don't know why their young master actually came here."

Ye Chen smiled indifferently, "Although I don't know the specific situation of the Kong family, with this kind of strength, in a place like Yan Jing where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are, wanting to go further is as difficult as ascending to heaven. If there is no further progress locally, what do you think they will do?"

Chen Zekai thought carefully and said, "If there is no further progress locally, then it can only be expanded and spread to the surrounding areas."

As he spoke, he asked surprised, "Young Master, do you mean that the Kong family might want to develop in Jin Ling?"

Ye Chen smiled, "Jin Ling is just a springboard. The Kong family must have realized that this is a good opportunity for development in the south."

"Because the Wu family has given up the position of the number one family in Jiangnan, the key now is who will be the number one family in Jiangnan. Although the Song family's strength is slightly weaker, it is not without a chance."

"If I were the person in charge of the Kong family, I would definitely find a family with relatively good strength in Jiangnan, and then unite with him to help him become the number one family in Jiangnan, and at the same time let him be loyal to himself and become his external force."

"In this way, it is equivalent to having extended his tentacles into Jiangnan, and at the same time laid a foundation in Jiangnan."

Chen Zekai said, "Young Master, I understand what you mean. It seems that this Kong family should have taken a fancy to the Song family and wants to cooperate with the Song family."

Ye Chen nodded, "The Kong family came to attend Miss Song's birthday party at this time. I guess they have deeper ideas, and they might even want to marry the Song family."

Chen Zekai frowned and said, "If the Kong family marries, they may not necessarily look down on the Song family."

Ye Chen smiled, "This depends on what status the young master sent by the other party has in the Kong family. If he is the eldest son and grandson of the Kong family, then the possibility is indeed a bit small, but if he is just one of many descendants, and maybe not the one who is very prominent, then sending him to marry Song Wanting, the Kong family doesn't lose, right?"

Chen Zekai thought thoughtfully, "If you say so, then it's indeed not a loss. The Kong family seems to have a prosperous family, and they should have six or seven sons in this generation of young descendants."

Ye Chen said, "This marriage is also like Tian Ji horse racing. The other party's overall strength is stronger than yours, which doesn't mean that every horse of his is stronger than your best horse. Maybe his lower-class horse is not as good as your upper-class horse."

Chen Zekai nodded repeatedly, "Young Master, what you said is very reasonable, I have been taught!"

Ye Chen waved his hand and smiled, "You have been deeply cultivated in Jin Ling for many years. I believe you can still understand this truth. Even if you didn't think clearly for a while, I can make you think clearly with one sentence."

At this time, Paul, who was drinking and doing nothing in the distance, really looked at Ye Chen with admiration.

He felt that Ye Chen refreshed his impression of him again.

Because he never expected that the upper-class society in Jin Ling would respect Ye Chen so much.

The one who was beside Ye Chen and whispering to him was the spokesperson of the Ye family in Jin Ling.

Even he was so respectful to Ye Chen, which shows how much influence Ye Chen has in Jin Ling.

At this time, someone in the banquet hall suddenly shouted: "The third young master of the Yan Jing Kong family is here!"

This sentence made the whole banquet hall uproar.

The Yan Jing Kong family, with strength in Yan Jing ranking in the top 10, total assets exceeding 500 billion, family background is very deep, and strength is extraordinary.

In terms of asset scale alone, the Kong family is at least 5 times that of the Song family.

The third young master of the Kong family actually ran to Jin Ling to attend the birthday party of the eldest daughter of the Song family, which made everyone feel a bit unusual.

Some people even exclaimed: "Is the Kong family wanting to marry the Song family?"

Others said: "It's very possible. Miss Song is so beautiful, so temperamental, and so capable. Even in the eyes of the great families in Yan Jing, she is absolutely a top-notch good daughter-in-law!"

Chen Zekai said to Ye Chen, "Young Master, this third young master of the Kong family actually has a pretty good status in the Kong family."

Ye Chen asked with interest, "How to say?"

Chen Zekai explained, "The Kong family has four sons in the previous generation. Each of them has at least two children, and each of them has a son. This third young master is the only son of the second son of the Kong family. Although his age ranks third, his strength and influence can rank second."

Ye Chen nodded and smiled, "It seems that the Kong family wants to use their middle-class horse to compete with the Song family's upper-class horse."

Chen Zekai smiled slightly and said, "I don't think Miss Song can necessarily look down on him."

Ye Chen asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"

Chen Zekai said seriously, "Young Master, you shouldn't be unable to see it, right? In Miss Song's eyes, she has only flashed brilliance at you, a male. I believe Miss Song must like you very much. Compared with you, let alone the third young master of the Kong family, even if all the young masters of the Kong family are added together, they are not as good as one ten-thousandth of you."

Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "Don't say such things casually in the future. Miss Wanting is not married yet, and I am a married man. If such words spread, it will affect her reputation."

"Understood." Chen Zekai nodded with a face of being taught, "Young Master, don't worry, I only say this to you." ===== CHAPTER 608 =====
